Re: Stalling when fuel below 1/4 tank

Hi Larry, when driveability issues arise from consistant conditions( ie: low fuel level ) I would test the vehicle in question for fuel pressure and condition, pressure test is made at the rail tap before regulator, condition would be looking for air bubbles in the return line coming off the ...

good luck,

Re: 93 bonneville maybe rough/low idle?

Mass air sensor? if you can figure out whether it is a random missfire affecting all cylinders intermittently or if it's a dead miss on a single cyl would help to narrow down the possibilities. good luck.
